Odd Pattern of Misidentification of New Testament Scripture
Posted: Mon Jun 19, 2017 6:14 pm
Origen doesn't seem to know where passages are supposed to be found in his Commentary on the Romans:
Then the footnotes goes on to note that this pattern extends throughout the text:For example to the Galatians [Corinthians]55 he writes, “But even if our gospel is veiled.”56 “Our” means everyone who are coheirs of Christ.https://books.google.com/books?id=g1w-s ... sQ6AEIKDAA
Is it really seven or eight scribal errors or is it retaining more proof of Origen's neo-Marcionite heritage (and subsequent correction by Eusebius).Origen has made a mistake here by citing from memory, unless the mistake belongs to Rufinus. The passage is from 2 Corinthians. For other mistaken citations, see 1.5.5; 5-3-8; 9.2.6; 9.23.2; 10.14.5.
